who died lately, bequeathed his whole
fortune, amounting to several million
francs, to the German Crown Prince

hatred of his own country which
somehow or other had taken full posses

refused to profit by such a motive, and,
therefore, dec lined the Frenchman's leg.
acy. Among the other reasons which had
brought NJ. Bellardn to loathe his com.
patriots was the fact that lie had been i'm.
prisoned for some act Of personal violence,
and it was when lying in jail that he
changed his will in favor of the heir to the
German Crown. The intentions Of the
testator were communicated through the
French Ambassador and the Foreign
Office to the princeiy legatee, who, how.
ever, has waived his right to this curious
inheritance,
